NEAT: a domain duplicated in genes near the components of a putative Fe

Description

Iron uptake from the host is essential for bacteria that infect animals. A protein domain has been identified that appears in variable copy number in bacterial genes that are usually in the vicinity of a putative Fe3+ siderophore transporter. This domain has been denoted NEAT for near transporter.
